If you want, I will take full blame for splat and clix changes on that.
Hi, I'm Zieg. I'm the type of person who analyzes everything. Clix was intended to make it so that people would not just use an auto clicker. With clix came the 10% increase in idle damage. This means that someone with an auto clicker will not be able to over the course of a day output more damage with the auto clicker vs someone who is logged in all day. What I discovered is that if someone set an auto clicker to instead of using normal clicks for each clix that they gain, they used splat, they would actually do about 10x more damage throughout the day compared to the idle bonus damage. If you want people to not gain huge advantages by simply cheating at the game, you need balances. By delaying the onset of the idle bonus (which by the way will have upgrades if you read his update "starting at 120") splat no longer gains this enormous bonus. A normal player who is logged in idling for most of the time, but still occasionally clicks (regular click or abilities) will have the advantage over someone who uses auto clickers.
Rays actual balance changes will be coming. The previous update was a stability update with a small fix to prevent people from just macroing their way through the game. For now, find a partner, party up. Put 1 or two levels into party bonus. If you do the math, that will do a LOT more for you than 4 levels of auto attack damage.
